So I found a new to me challenge--which I will need since I will not be doing my own challenges again--at least not for a while. It is hard enough to just get back up and running

BTW--I am looking for challenges to play along with--what are your favorites??

Leave me a comment so I can check them out.

I still need to get 90% of my supplies from my old home. Who knows when that will happen. So in the mean time thank goodness for NEW SUPPLIES! I am creating cards for my first class of my new demonstratorship which of course will have to use the new Thoughtful Branches stamp set since it is only available for a limited time. It is amazing anyway so I am glad to play with it first. So with all of that being said here is my card for the challenge......

I so love trees and nature! It truly makes me feel relaxed to just sit and look at them. Hence my reason for using them on this card--this could be a sympathy card or just for someone who is going through some hard times. Here is the inside of the card.....

And of course I need to show you the sketch challenge too....

I don't have very many--or should I say I only have two embellishments available to me at the moment--rhinestones and Linen Thread--so I had to be a bit creative with them! Why not come over and play along--it is a fun sketch!

nice people left a comment:

Love your card, Mary Jo...... I have followed your blog for about 3 years now. I have many of your sketches "pinned" on a "Card Sketch - Technostamper" board that's been inactive (since your last sketch). But I also have almost 40 active card sketch boards on Pinterest with card sketches/challenges (including Paper Craft Crew), as well as around 20 inactive ones from other blogs/sites that discontinued their sketches. You asked for some challenges, but I can't possibly list them all here, lol.

So if you'd like, feel free to check out my Pinterest boards at https://www.pinterest.com/paulabeesspace/(the inactive card sketch boards are at the bottom)

Creativity is God's gift to you. What you do with it is your gift to God.

-Bob Moawad

God whispers in your soul and speaks to your mind. Sometimes when you don't have time to listen, He has to throw a brick at you. It's your choice: Listen to the whisper, or wait for the brick. -unknown

Preach the Gospel at all times and when necessary use words. -St Francis of Assisi
